Large seminal plug!!

[Psychobunny]

Considering Squee is only 5'' from nose to vent, this is a rather large seminal plug.
It took him a few minutes to work it out, and he way on the free range, with his butt hanging over the edge, so I caught it in my hand as it fell:

Wow. I would never have guessed they would be this large!! No wonder females can store sperm for a long time . . .

Thanks for sharing this--it helps me know what to expect when we get our chameleon!

I hoped it would help new owners, when you see them trying to pass one of these, best to leave them completely alone.
It does make them nervous being watched, and they may want to rush, which you don't want them to do.
You can tell, because you can see them flexing the vent mussel to squeeze
it out.

I usually leave the room and let them take all the time they want.

If you rush them, you may end up having to pull the remaining piece out
of his butt yourself!!

This is one more reason why proper hydration is so important.
It keeps everything clean and lubricated so they can pass these smoothly
and all in one piece

When I mist them with warm water, I try to give their vents a good long shower

LOL! I had to wait a good while, and he kept glancing back at me like, 'are you going to just stand there or are you going to help me get rid of this thing??'

I have pulled stuff out of his butt before!! LOL

Anyway, I'm sure he was very happy to have it out!!
